The prediction

There is little to separate Adelaide Crows and North Melbourne coming into this round ten encounter but the two teams have been trending in different directions of late.

After a slow start to the 2026 AFL campaign which saw them win just three of their opening four matches, the Crows have responded well winning four of their last five.

The mood in the camp is strong ahead of this match but they have an injury concern over skipper Riley Thilthorpe although he has been named in the squad for this match.

North Melbourne’s young and upcoming team started the season well winning three of the opening four but they have lost their last three games albeit against decent calibre opponents.

They are playing better than the results suggest and they are more than capable of pushing the Crows all the way here.

Our play in this one is on total points. Matches involving both teams have been incredibly open and high scoring and there is value on over 176.5 total points in this one.

Adelaide Crows vs North Melbourne tip: Over 176.5 total points
